Seriously, if a clay bar or Scratch-X doesn't satisfy you, dip the housings in acetone.

Those are custom made. Pretty sweet, lights like that would make big $ money here in the states...

I am scared of acetone. I did a pair of 300 dollar mercedes lenses once and they glazed over , ruined.

Test a small portion of the lens to see what is working, what is destroying.

I used CD cleaner on my dads spare car (97 lesabre) and it cleared the yellowing up.

You have so many different poly materials out there that will not work with acetone or MEK (methol ethyl keytone)

Test a small area and see.

DO NOT TRY RAINEX!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you really want to get a good product, go to www.zainobros.com and choose their "Z-12™ Clear-View Glass Polish". That'll do the trick.

Good luck,
Matt

those lights need a "mothers" touch =D use some mother metal polish it works great, u will have greater results if you remove the housing and clean both the outside and inside
